The Balay Negrense was originally the ancestral house of Victor Fernandez Gaston, a son of Yves Leopold Germain Gaston and Prudencia Fernandez. The elder Gaston is a native of Normandy in France where he married a Filipina from Batangas where he initially began experimenting with sugar production before relocating to Negros. Balay Negrense is a museum in Silay City which showcases the lifestyle of a late 19th-century Negrense sugar baron. This museum was the first to be established in Negros Occidental in October 6, 1990.  Read More:  http://lexicalcrown.blogspot.com/2014/04/balay-negrense-of-silay-city.html

Balicaocao Eco Park is nestled on a hill with an epic panoramic view of Kabankalan City and nearby towns. Located in Barangay Orong, Balicaocao is just a short 25-minute bumpy ride from the highway. There are some motorcycles for hire when you get to the junction along the highway.

It is a perfect place for a picnic with family and friends. The entrance fee is just around Php 20 per person. For day trips, you can rent one of the open cottages or simply put up a tent on the grounds. There are also benches where you can just sit, relax, and enjoy the view. They have a small sari-sari store where you can buy drinks and snacks. You can also bring your own food and use the cooking/grilling area for your meals.

The resort has a big pavilion that can accommodate 200 persons for parties and gatherings. Other facilities include a swimming pool and a 400-meter zipline. If you want to stay overnight, there are cottages and rooms that you can rent starting from Php 1200 per night.  Read More:  https://wethreefiends.wordpress.com/2018/03/05/balicaocao-eco-park-and-highland-resort/
